Pathagoras Tip of the Week

DropDown Lists (refine selection)

Create a DropDown List from a Clause Selection Screen:  In an earlier tip, we showed you how to create a Clause Selection Screen from a DropDown List. You can also create a DropDown List from a Clause Selection Screen.

     "Why would I want to do that?" you might ask.  Well, a DropDown List typically contains the contents of an entire book (folder or glossary). That can be dozens, even hundreds of clauses. That many be too many for your purposes. Let's say you want your  DropDown List to contain only the 10 most used letters, forms, clause-sets, whatever, contained in the book.

     Do this: Display the book's contents onto a standard Clause Selection Screen. Select from the left panel those entries that you want to appear in the DropDown List and move them to the right panel. When done, select the DropDown List option from the choices at the far right side of the screen. Click 'Next'. That's it!
